Call it the first day my fat governor said to shelter in place. I knew what the consequences were of the lockdowns and the inflation from the stimulus, but people called me every name in the book and told me to do what I'm told.
There are a few family members I no longer speak to.

Most will not learn. They still do not accept the fact that our political class hates us and works against us. That realization is too terrible for them to grasp. So they do not see.

It was a exercise of power and how far they can push the sheeple.

Nope.
And the next “lockdown” will be permanent.

We were swindled, fooled, bamboozled and lied to during the pandemic.Many people are unaware and will be taking their kids for the booster that was just approved.

Correct. They just yelled at me telling me to do with the local government told me to do. Because if I didn’t people would get hurt.
To: ChicagoConservative27
We still won’t hold Fauci and crew responsible for their irresponsible research that led to the pandemic.

Our underlying health woes are exacerbated by income inequality and high rates of poverty and maddening levels of obesity, diabetes and “deaths of despair,” especially among the underclass. Black Americans were hit harder by COVID than white Americans. The poor were hit harder than the well-to-do.What a bunch of bullsh&t. The reason the poor were disproportionately hit was because we have the fattest poor in the world. Income inequality ? Please...

The poor are fat because they eat carbs. Carbs fill you up and are dirt cheap.

Next year they can do it again, and most folks will mask up as told, social distance, close their shops... Even turn in their neighbors.
Why?
They have “faith” in government.
They don’t believe in God. That’s silly, unscientific, not logical or even inclusive by today’s thinking. But they “believe” very strongly in acid rain, the coming ice age, global warming, climate change, ozone holes, Covid, gay genes, peak oil...
They have been fooled over and over. For decades! What makes you think they’ll be any smarter and learn anything on this one?
They will believe / trust lying politicians, power hungry buerocrats, and greedy corporations... but distrust a priest and think they are all pedophiles... Why?
Public education, the arts, news and social media. People today can be told that XX and XY isn’t scientific, but idiotic masks are.

“OUR” failures? It wasn’t me who decided to shut down my industry and customers nearly putting me out of business.

Most of us have learned. A lot.
The problem is, the government has also learned and that is that they can control far too many people through fear tactics.
